"Boss Bai's words are obvious. How can I get you into trouble? I want to see you get rich. If you get rich, you should be a law-abiding citizen Pay taxes in time. Don't be caught for tax evasion. " Li Shun is playing ha ha

"Ha ha..." Bai Laosan said with a smile: "boss Li, I don't think we should fight. Is it interesting to fight? I've already arrived at the bath center. Come on. The general will come later. We'll have a comfortable bath, a massage and a good tea chat. "

"Well, I'll be there in a minute!" Li Shun hung up and gave a long sneer.

Li Shun's smile gave me goose bumps.

Take Li Shun to Bai Laosan's bath center, and Lao Qin continues to drive me.

"Last night at the Crown Hotel, Bai Laosan invited a lot of people." Lao Qin said.

"Oh..."

"Wood, too! But I didn't see the emperor! " Said Lao Qin.

"He didn't go?" I said.

"Yes Lao Qin nodded, looking slightly uneasy.

I can't help thinking of the figure I saw at the gate of the hospital just now. After thinking about it for a while, I said, "boss Li's plan has been successful. Everything is going well. It seems that it's not so difficult and important whether the emperor is here or not?"

Lao Qin said: "boss Li's plan is successful. It seems that the Emperor didn't make any trouble. However, why do I always feel a little uneasy? The emperor is always inseparable from wood. Why didn't I see him at the wine shop last night? What has wood arranged for him to do

Lao Qin's words moved my heart. I didn't speak.

After a while, Lao Qin said, "Lei Zheng didn't show up last night. From the opening ceremony to drinking, I haven't seen him!"

I said: "he is a man in the officialdom. He will pay attention to his influence when he does things. According to his identity, it's right for him not to show up on that occasion. He has concerns Just because he doesn't show up doesn't mean he doesn't care about Bai Laosan. He is always paying attention behind the scenes. "

Lao Qin nodded: "well Maybe so. I don't know about officialdom. Now you have some ideas. "

I laughed and sighed: "Alas The second generation of officials came to a miserable end. "

Lao Qin said: "I didn't expect that boss Li would attack him like this. It's cruel, but it's reasonable to think about it. How can I defeat Bai Laosan if I don't do it like this? It's enough for Bai Laosan to make such a living treasure The power of the second generation of officials in Beijing is naturally different from that of local officials. "

"That's right. Now the so-called second generation of officials, in fact, is to fight for their fathers. It depends on whose father is in power!" I said: "the local officials are not comparable with those in Beijing Naturally, their offspring are also very powerful. "

Lao Qin said, "what do you think of the phenomenon of the second generation of officials?"

After thinking about it, I said: "seeking truth from facts, the second generation of officials should be divided into two kinds. One is the second generation of corrupt officials. This kind of people pretends to be lofty and proud, but also pretends to be modest. They are very good at pretending to be forced. The other is the second generation of good officials or honest officials. This kind of people are actually good."

"Oh..." Lao Qin looked at me while driving.

I went on to say: "in fact, as a friend of mine said, any kind of parents have any kind of children. Those corrupt officials take bribes all day long and get nothing for nothing. Their children have been raised high since childhood, and most of them are only children. Of course, they have become arrogant. And those who can be good officials and honest officials and really work for the common people are not only of high cultural quality, but also of first-class ideological and moral character, so their second generation should be pretty good.

"In essence, the problem of the second generation of officials actually reflects the problem of the first generation of officials. What kind of collusion between officials and businessmen, using power to seek illegitimate interests, bullying the people, and so on, are all examples set by the first generation of officials."

Lao Qin nodded: "to put it bluntly, there is a privileged class in China, whose privileges can not only be enjoyed by themselves, but also be inherited Without the existence of the privileged class, how can we talk about the arrogance of the second generation of officials? What right do they have to do wrong? "

I nodded: "yes, you are right. There is a privileged class in China today There is such a privileged class at every level, from the central government to the local government. "

Lao Qin said, "in fact, the privileged class is not only in your time, but also in my time."

I laughed: "you were so poor at that time, what's your privilege?"

As he drove, Lao Qin laughed: "privilege has nothing to do with wealth No matter how poor the society is, there are people with high concentration of wealth All this wealth is concentrated in the hands of the privileged class Whether it's business or officialdom. "

I said, "Lao Qin, do you mean you can't do business without privileges? This is the current situation in China?"

Lao Qin nodded and said, "yes, there are so many people in China. Everyone wants to get rich, but wealth is limited. Theoretically speaking, when the total amount of wealth remains unchanged, some people accumulate wealth, and the other people will have no chance with wealth. Therefore, wealth can only be controlled by a few people."Yes, in this world, everyone wants equality, but that's just a hope. Human beings have never been equal since the day they were born. It's the same at all times and all over the world. You don't know, my childhood education is like this. There is no distinction between high and low in revolutionary work. This kind of thought has poisoned me for many years.

"In fact, if you think about it now, it's just blatant nonsense. In those days, the radicals like Zhang Chunqiao and Jiang Qing still yelled to restrict the legal power of the bourgeoisie and criticize them? Of course, the people support it. Anyway, they can't enjoy anything. Who doesn't want equality? But what happened? Not only did privilege not disappear, but it became more and more intense.

"When I was a red guard, I went to Beijing and found that no matter what Beijing did, it needed some privileges. I wanted to read novels. Sorry, there were only" sunny day "and" Golden Avenue "in Xinhua Bookstore, but Gao Gan could buy a lot of foreign translated novels when he entered the internal bookstore with the purchasing certificate. You see, the right to read novels was monopolized. What's more ridiculous is that you have to have the privilege to watch movies. You have to have a way to see the foreign movies shown inside, such as the battle of Rome and the God of love in the palace No way but to see the old "mine war", "tunnel war".

"At that time, a friend from Beijing and I haven't seen each other for a long time. When I met him, I was very excited. I patted my chest and said that I would take you to the park. My heart said that the boy was sick. Why should I take you to the park? After making trouble for a long time, he wanted to take me to visit BeiHai Park and Jingshan Park, which were closed in 1969 and became Jiang Qing's private garden because she wanted to ride a horse in it. It's been ten years since the closure. Three years after Jiang Qing's downfall, it's open to the public. Before that, if you want to have a relationship, you can also go in and visit. My friend wants to entertain me to visit BeiHai. This is obviously a very fashionable thing, and it also shows that he has great powers.

"At that time, I thought, China is incurable. It's full of black humor. There are many privileged countries in the world. Isn't there a small birch shop in the Soviet Union? I haven't heard that even reading novels, watching movies and visiting parks have become privileges. It's too much. "

I interrupted Lao Qin: "after listening to you for a long time, you don't seem to agree with privilege. But now you are following boss Li, and you are consciously or unconsciously using the privilege he enjoys. Isn't boss Li also using the privilege of big or small people when doing things? Isn't that contradictory?"

Lao Qin said with a smile: "listen to me. My point is to admit the existence of privilege, but it can't be excessive. I said that if a society wants to embody privilege even when reading novels and visiting parks, then the society is too bad. I advocate limited competition. What is limited competition? "For example, in business, you should allow all those who want to do business, but not everyone can succeed because everyone has different social resources.

"Education, talent, temperament, opportunities, including social relations, are all your resources. There can never be any equality on this point. You have to admit the differences here. The last emperor Puyi was released from the management of war criminals. Should he be an ordinary citizen? This old man does not work hard and does not share grain. His contribution to the society may not be much more than that of ban'er who pedals. Why should the state pay him a high salary? For nothing else, just because he had been an emperor, he could not be treated the same as ban Er Ye. This is Puyi's social resources. From his birth, he was destined to be a king. The king of subjugation was also a king, and it was useless for others to be angry.

"In my opinion, there must be some privileged classes in a society. We have to admit this fact, just like the British people admit the Queen's privilege. We all calmly accept this fact and regard it as a very normal thing. The queen of England does nothing all day long, which is not good for the country, but also enjoys a very high salary. All this is tax paying People's hard-earned money, in this way, no one has to talk about equality with the queen.

"It's not normal for a society to have no aristocracy. It's a common sense. The key is to make the truth clear. Don't use big words to fool people. The common people are reasonable. Since you are enjoying privileges, you should honestly admit it and prove the legitimacy of enjoying privileges. If you are enjoying privileges while calling yourself a public servant, what are you shouting There is no distinction between high and low in revolutionary work. Everyone in our society is equal. That is to fool people.

"To fool people is to pay a price. If the people believe you, they really think that everyone is equal. Then the legitimacy of your privilege will be questioned, and the people will think that this society is unfair, and there will be resentment. This is the inevitable price of lying. For example, a large number of grandsons, who are so greedy and arrogant, have turned the two famous women into their own private bourgeoisie.

"What's more, even pretending to be a grandson is very arrogant. If I fool you, you have to listen. I know you don't believe it, but you can't show it. If you don't believe it, I'll kill you. This kind of person, even though he has become a national leader, is actually mentally retarded. If you do this, you will put yourself in a very dangerous situation. Just like the first emperor of Qin Dynasty, all the heroes in the world will be killed if they want to. Whoever kills you will become a hero forever. This is equivalent to using your despicability to improve other people's reputation. Isn't that stupid B? "

After listening to Lao Qin's high opinion, I can't help but look at Lao Qin with new eyes. Although his views are a little outdated, they are reasonable. I think of his experience as the educated youth of the red guards. He was also a hot-blooded youth with ideals and ambitions. It was just an era that completely destroyed his dream and reduced him to a tropical rainforest to fight for utopian ideals. He paid a lifetime price for his so-called ideals.Although he doesn't like to talk, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have any thoughts. His mind, which has been closed to dust for many years, still has a lot of grievances and depression. Lao Qin's point of view may represent his generation. He spoke from the heart of that generation.

Lao Qin is not a simple warrior. He is a man with thoughts, but his thoughts have been dusty for a long time.
